D2 Photography

Wedding | Last Updated: February 2, 2021

We are Damiano Salvadori and Donatella Barbera, husband and wife. We are both professional photographers and our studio, D2 Photography is based in Certaldo, Italy.

We love photographing weddings throughout Italy but we also we enjoy discovering new places, people and cultures by photographing weddings around the world.

In the last few years we have photographed many different kinds of traditions, customs, and religious ceremonies. We have also photographed same-sex couple weddings.

We love to work together, and we are always excited to photograph the emotions expressed in each moment the wedding day.

We work with two cameras each, and among all the lenses we have, we shoot almost all of the weddings with 35mm. We use the 35mm because it allows us to photograph a wedding in a documentary style that creates a story.

We usually shoot with natural light, however for creative photographs and evening parties we may use flash.
